Hoping to Get Lucky

Since this week is St. Patrick's Day and Spring Break I do not have to worry about getting pinched by any of the students if I forget to wear green. Of course, I would never forget! I am actually hoping to get lucky this week and win a challenge or two.

I created this card this morning and wanted to keep it simple. My daughter had some Recollection stickers in her stash that I knew she was not going to use, so I decided to claim them. : ) I created the two squares and aligned them with the criss cross pattern on the decorative paper. They are adhered with foam squares to add a little dimension. I then added gold embroidery floss around the corners to keep the layout symmetrical.
The same colors flow to the inside along with another shamrock sticker in the lower left corner.
Challenges:

I hope you get lucky this week too!

  11. Very cute card! Love that plaid paper, and your two embellie squares set at an angle are really eye catching. As is the floss wrapped corners.

  13. Oh I love it. I was playing with my Cricut last night. I love the plaid paper and just adore the finished inside of the card. I always forget about the inside (besides a sentiment).

    Wonderful card. Thanks so much for playing along with us in the Sisterhood of Crafters.
